I
DO NOT CLAIM THAT THIS LIST IS COMPLETE - NOR WITHOUT ERRORS- FAR
FROM IT.

THERE ARE PROBABLY AROUND 3,000 RUSSIAN EJECTIONS. ANY HELP TO ADD
TO THIS LIST IS WELCOMED - ESPECIALLY THE RUSSIANS IN KOREA.

I
HOPE THAT YOU WILL ENJOY THIS PAGE.

(MORE TO ADD ON EJECTION TESTS AND TEST EJECTEES)

(page formatting needs attention)

Hello, Mike.
One year ago I promiss send to yure information about Korean war ejections. In
this list present information not only about ejected but killed pilots too.
Sources I post later (ok?):

According closed military report (now that information non secret) Soviet Air
Forces since November-1950 till December-1951 have made 19203 combat flights,
having carried out 307 air combats day and 16 night. The losses have made 34
pilots and 71 plane MiG-15bis.
For 1952 it is made 23539 combat flights day and 1062 night. There were 868 air
combat day and 32 night. Losses: 51 pilot and 172 planes.
In total during war lost for all reasons:
Soviet Union: 335 planes (almost all MiG-15bis) and 120 pilots (in 63229 combat
flights and 1790 air combats).
China Air Force: 231 airplane and 126 pilots (in 366 air combats).
North Korea: about 150 aircraft (mainly piston)

The Soviet pilots downed or crashed in the Korean war 1950-1953 (Crews of
brought down planes A-20G (04.09.1950) and Il-12 (27.07.1953) are not included
in the list, only one aircraft La-11 all other MiG-15):
P.S. killed = no ejected.

TWO FLEW OUT OF UKRAINE; Barsov and Pirogov Said
Call of Virginia Was Final

The Russian airmen, Lieut. Piotr
Pirogov and Lieut. Anatoli P. Barsov, took off from
the Ukraine last Oct. 9 in a two-engined Russian
bomber, crash-landed at Hoersching air base near
Linz. Austria, ten miles inside the American zone,
and refused to return to the Soviet Union.

Engine problems.
Crashed into the Stößensee located in the
British Sector

Lt. Col. Juri Janow
killed

Cpt. Boris Kapustin
killed

Several
versions of the events surrounding the loss of the aircraft exist.
i. The two Soviet crew deliberately ignored an instruction to crash land
fearing that it would cause many civilian fatalities. They refused eject
to safety and were both killed in the crash. They became celebrated
figures in the USSR
ii. Speculation that one of the crew was attempting to defect to the
west and as a result the pilot was shot by the navigator. It has been
alleged that neither ejection seat was armed.

Training flightEngine Problems - pilot ejected. After the ejection the aircraft
continued to fly through East Germany, then West Germany. After 900 km the
MiG-23 ran out of fuel and crashed onto a house killed an 18 year old male
occupant in the area of Kortrijk city in north west Belgium

Soviet airbase, Kohlberg, Poland

Col. Nikolai Skurigin ejected over Poland and landed safely
with his parachute

"''If I could have foreseen such tragic
consequences to this pilotless flight, I would have stayed in the plane
to the end.''
